CUEMASTER OPERATION 31
RECORDING MODIFIED SCENE LEVELS
Having edited the playback levels of a Manual Scene or Fade-Scene as above, you can modify the recorded levels as follows:
> Hold [RECORD] and [MODIFY], then press the Scenemaster Flash key.
A Mimic flash indicates that the Scene has been modified, and the Compare LED is turned off at the same time. Fade-Scenes modified in
this way do not change their recorded auto fade times.
PROTECTING CHANNEL USAGE
Channel over-ride using the Down key provides a convenient way of protecting any lighting circuits from unauthorised use; the Up and
Edit Clear functions are not enabled if the Record LED is off, hence channels set `Down' cannot be used by any other operator if Record
is disabled. You can lock Channels off as follows:
1 Hold [DOWN], then select the Channel flash keys you want to protect.
2 Hold [RECORD] and press [KILL] to disable Record: the Record LED will go off.
The Edit Clear and Up functions are now inactive, and the disabled channels cannot be used without re-enabling Record, and clearing
the edit state. The Down key is left active when Record is disabled to allow you to kill a knocked light during the show.

Before continuing with these examples you should re-enable Record, and clear the edited channels with the Compare key.
COPYING A SCENE LIVE
You can copy a Manual Scene or Fade-Scene (or any combination) to another master by playing it back live, recording the output of the
desk with or without adding or editing levels, and then assigning the recording as follows:
1 Set the Scenemaster to copy at Full. Add other Scenemasters at any level if required.
2 Edit levels using the Up and Down keys, or add new levels from the Channel faders.
3 Press [RECORD] to record the levels.
4 Hold [RECORD], then press the Flash key above the new Scenemaster to assign the recording.
5 If you have used the Up or Down keys, clear edit levels by holding [COMPARE], then pressing [UP].
The new Scene is recorded as a Manual Scene and.may be changed to a Fade-Scene if required. Times recorded on Fade-Scenes are
not transferred. If required, you can set the fade time on the Scene Fade master before pressing Record, or edit the time later. If an auto
fade time must be transferred as well, the Fade-Scene should be copied using the Copy Blind method mentioned next.
